Recently the board software has been updated and there are some known bugs/failures:
- Avatars are currently not being displayed✔ FIXED
- Tapatalk connection is currently broken✔ FIXED
- Avatars cannot be uploaded✔ FIXED

In the next few weeks there will be a few changes:- Fouriers pro team brakes front and rear- 52/38 & 11-28 drive train- DI2 DA9070 upgrade w/ internal battery

At the moment without pedals and the Garmin mount etc it weighs about 7.15kgs. That was with the Giant PSLR1 wheels. I'll get a proper weight this week with everything on it race ready. Do we quote weights with pedals on here?

Any questions please shout.

No that's just the standard Giant SL version. I've not been able to ride one of the integrated stems yet so not sure if I should make the change. Will grab some photos of my mates SL0 with the integrated one.

Thanks for the replies guys. It's not the most recent photo but will sort that shortly. In response to the questions:

Brake upgrade: The stock brakes aren't great. They're weak in the spring area and are constantly rubbing. Giant are aware of the issue and will more than happily help you out with them. They just don't work so good. They pull through easily due to the grub screw being so small and the spring mount isn't amazing either and pops out. Initially mine have been replaced with the aluminium version from the ENVIE (I think the lower end Propels have the same). They're stiffer but same issues. You end up having to adjust while you ride to avoid rubbing a brake. The solution is these:

Bigger grub screw holding the cable in and a slightly different design. The cable pulls from the other side of the caliper but that isn't a big deal, you just need a new cable. The difference in performance is night and day. Review here (post #30): http://forums.roadbikereview.com/giant/ ... ost4534889

Giant Shimano are using these brakes. That said Shimano is meant to be launching with their own version soon

I'm on mechanical DA (9000) at the moment but upgrading to DI2 (9070) in the next month. Going for the internal battery as well which will be a little bit of custom work but no big deal for the boys at TBSM, my local bike store.
